I presume you are talking about [1]? Maybe consider rebasing that one on top of this instead, since this is just a refactoring whereas submodule-recursive-fetch-gets-the-tip changes functionality, from what I understand of patches 8 and 9.

For me, just stating that you have excluded any coccinelle-generated patches in order to ease merging into the various branches is sufficient, and people can test the coccinelle patches included by running "make coccicheck" then "patch -p1 <contrib/coccinelle/the_repository.cocci.patch".
